Dr Chloe Yale Pinto 's Research

Chloe’s PhD focused on the relationship between artwork and antisemitism in Ezra Pound’s work and thought, and she is currently revising her doctoral thesis into a monograph. Her current research investigates the interplay between textual antisemitism and literary theory, analysing how the plasticity of anti-Jewish prejudice informs and infects the meaning of words. She previously worked as the book review editor for the Journal of Contemporary Antisemitism. Her academic interests include: visual culture; the history of antisemitism and the Holocaust; modernism; Jewish literature; film theory; avant-garde poetics; popular culture and psychoanalysis.
